Gemma Arterton Quotes About Film

Quotes about: Film

• I was on this boat in the middle of the ocean scuba diving for this film I did, and I was with actor Mackenzie Cook, who is in it as well, and I didn't have my phone on me.

My agent just went "dum, dum, dum, dum"(hums Bond theme song), and I just knew then, and I went ahhhh madness, and I was over the moon.

It is hard but it matters so much to me that it's just something that's going to be necessary and people will have to deal with it.
